Ever since I was little I have been writing short stories and little novels. When I was younger, I would chronicle neighborhood stories and fun games of ball with the kids who lived in the neighborhood (we called ourselves The Neighborhood Gang.) So I thought maybe I'd start a blog. I've been known to have some pretty bizarre dreams, so maybe I'll write about some of them. Or maybe I won't. But hey, it's my blog, and I'll write about whatever the heck I want! :)
I've always wanted to get into acting. Kate Winslet is my idol! I was in my first play/musical this summer. I've been taking piano for about eight years, and I started playing the French horn in fourth grade. I took voice lessons for about three weeks but I quit... but I love singing! I decided I'm a high contralto. I like playing the pennywhistle, too, even though it does drive people insane. I am teaching myself guitar, mandolin, bouzouki, and bagpipes, and I want to learn the fiddle and I'm just starting flute.
I love traveling. Every summer, my parents and I pile into the van with my awesome, cute, hilarious chihuahua-terrier Jack, and head out on the long, 2,300-mile-long way west. Our family home on the Rocky Mountain Front is a great place to be, complete with beautiful mountains, rolling plains and rushing rivers. And lots of family! I love the great outdoors. It's so much fun to take a long hike in the woods or the mountains, or to explore in the wilderness, or just to sit outside in the yard and read a book.
Anyway, I ramble-- I hope I can brighten up your day with my blog! Enjoy!
